Christopher Eddy asked Laurie Halse Anderson:

Mrs. Anderson, I am currently a Junior in college, and I recently reread Speak for my young adult literature class. I first read the book about five years ago, and having a time lapse between readings opened my eyes to the "evolution" of bullying. If you were to write this same story in 2015, would you focus on cyber bullying as opposed to physical or direct harassment? How would this change the book's dynamic?

Laurie Halse Anderson I think the cyber bullying would be in addition to the physical harassment. Sadly.
